Research Abstract |
Hyperadiponectinemia induced by transgenic expression of adiponectin prevented the premature death of metabolic syndrome model mice without affecting body weight or food ingestion. The longevity effect was not attributable to the suppression of malignant tumors or vascular events, or the augmentation of Sirt1. Anti-inflammatory action through the inhibition of AKT signaling may be involved in the beneficial effect of adiponectin. On the other hand, adiponectin did not prevent the premature death of Klotho mice.
